If you compute the contribution of the individual bit changes in the data you end up with the xor table above; byte offset from the end of the data, bit pattern, xor value. Correcting for little endianess in the output you end up with the hex values in parenthesis. The least significant bit is 0x1021 and each subsequent bit is a shift left, if the XOR value has the 0x8000 bit set then it is XORed with 0x1021. This is the CRC-CCITT polynomial.

 8  7  6  5  4  3  2  1  0
d5 aa 96 82 00 02 00 00 00: 08b2
         ||     |
         ||     68ed
         |408b
         20d4
 
08b2: 68ed ^ 408b ^ 20d4

Starting at the least significant bit and filling in the XOR values for each bit gives the above diagram; the diagram stops at the 20d4 XOR value because at that point it matches the final CRC. This tells us that the CRC covers the 6 bytes prior.

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Digest::CRC qw(crc);
my $data = pack("H*", "820002000000");
printf("%04x\n", crc($data,16,0,0,0,0x1021,0,0));

We can also compute the same CRC in Perl; note the result will be byte swapped since the data encodes the number as little endian.

For the sake of documentation, we will refer to the unique id numbers for each wire as "wire id numbers". So wire id 0 is W1, wire id 1 is Y1, wire id B is *, etc.

FET presence

The backplate will, at least upon connection, send information about which FETs have a wire present. This data is received with command ids 0004 and 0009, in that order. Each sensor is represented by one byte which is either 00 (not present) or 01 (present).

The content of 0004 is in order of the "wire id numbers" used for control: W1, Y1, G, OB, W2, ?0, ?0, Y2, ?1, ?1, ?0, *, ?0

The content of 0009 is arranged differently and has 2 more values: W1, Y1, ?1, ?1, ?0, G, OB, W2, ?0, Y2, ?0, *, ?0, ?0, ?0

After these are received, the display sends back command 008f with the exact data of 0004.

Temperature reading

The backplate will send message 0002 every 30 seconds. The data contains two 16-bit numbers, which nlclient logs in decimal. The first number is the temperature in centi-celcius. The second number is the humidity in per-millis.
